In a facsimile apparatus, an image to be transmitted is stored in a first memory and the stored image is transferred to and stored in a second memory, which is capable of being loaded to and unloaded from the facsimile apparatus. This processing is executed if certain conditions such as time are satisfied, and if the second memory has been loaded. After the transfer of the image data, the status of storage in each of the first and second memories is managed. In a case where the transmitted image that has been stored in the second memory is to be transferred to the first memory, a necessary condition is that the image stored in the loaded second memory coincide with the contents of the managed status of storage.
